About this Opportunity

At Fresh Truck, they are on a mission to strengthen communities by getting fresh food to the households that need it most. They work to radically impact community health by celebrating food culture and strengthening communities with the food they need. 

Their Fresh Truck mobile markets are a food justice program designed to use reimagined vehicles to increase access to fresh food in traditionally marginalized communities. By bringing the shopping experience closer to people, they can in turn provide more opportunities for households to use SNAP/HIP benefits. 

During these weekly mobile markets, Fresh Truck staff and volunteers set up to run a dignified shopping experience for communities to have the option of selecting from a variety of quality fruits and vegetables at affordable prices! 

MBTA Accessible: short walk from 201 bus line, 30 minute walk from Fields Corner (Red Line)

At Boston Cares, we recognize that diversity, equity, and inclusion are fundamental values that guide our mission and work. Boston Cares is committed to creating a community where everyone is valued, respected, and can come and participate as their authentic selves. We expect that all volunteers and partners join us in promoting a safe and supportive space for everyone.
